republicans will all say ronald reagan and they will all be wrong because they no longer understand ronald reagan or themselves. no one will say one-term president george h.w. bush and everyone will be right about that. democrats will say bill clinton and they will be wrong. that leaves the last man standing, newt gingrich. i think that i can safely assume that none of you chose newt gingrich as the person who had the most lasting and influential on our politics and governing. and that is because the american media covers the presidency the way the british covers the monarchy. they pretend that we have a king, that nobody could possibly be more important than the president. the media simply refuses to comprehend how powerful congress is and how powerful the speaker of the house can be, something that the founding fathers discovered. why are republicans wrong when they say that reagan was such a great president? because nothing of reaganism survived his presidency. there is no reagan legacy. republicans lie to themselves and they try to lie to history about reagan being an anti-tax fanatic

ronald reagan was a conservative. but he regularly found a way to appeal to democrats and to win democratic support in congress. bill clinton was a progressive democrat in many ways. but he found ways to regularly appeal to republicans. both president bush's regularly found ways at the beginning of their terms to reach out to the other side. that has been the political norm. well, you'd almost think that the separation of power was something that had been invented four years ago. the reality as bob luper points out in his book, presidents have always faced the difficult challenges of hyper partisanship. the successful ones have gone the way to overcome this, and it is fair to judge a president for a promise to turn the page and move his past partisan gridlock when you have ran on that theme. it is fair to judge you when you were not able to reverse the gridlock. >> bemoan how important is his speech tonight, president obama, to his reelection effort? >> i'm not going to guess anything that has happened in the last two
